Suzy Bogguss

With the release her 1989 major label debut, Somewhere Between, Suzy Bogguss quickly became one of the key artists that defined the golden days of ’90s country. She scored a string of Top 10 singles with country radio staples like “Outbound Plane,” “Drive South,” “Hey Cinderella,” “Letting Go” and “Aces,” and her 1991 album of that name was certified platinum. In addition, she scored a trio of gold albums and notched more than 3 million sales. On her new album, Lucky, a collection of songs all written by Merle Haggard, the CMA, ACM and Grammy-Award-winning singer makes the country rebel’s compositions her own, reinterpreting classics like “The Bottle Let Me Down”, “Silver Wings”, and “Today I Started Loving You Again” from a female point of view. Suzy Bogguss didn’t set out to craft a Merle Haggard tribute record. Some might call that serendipity; she just calls it Lucky.
